Bad: His going to have a bad day in Cali

San Francisco police, the FBI and U.S. Marshalls have been looking for Christopher Ablett for more than a month now.

BARTLESVILLE, OK -- A man wanted for murdering a leader of the Hells Angels Biker Gang has showed up in Green Country. Mark 'Papa' Guardado was killed outside a San Francisco bar last month.

The man authorities believe shot him has turned himself in in Bartlesville.

San Francisco police, the FBI and U.S. Marshalls have been looking for Christopher Ablett for more than a month now. Their search ended when he strolled into the Bartlesville Police Department.

Police say the 37-year-old Ablett calmly told the dispatcher on duty that he was a wanted fugitive, and he would like to turn himself in.

"The guy came in. He was cooperative, even polite. Indicated he wanted to go back and answer the charges," said Bartlesville Police Chief Tom Holland.

And he will face some serious charges.

San Francisco police believe Ablett, an alleged member of the Mongols Motorcycle Club, shot Mark 'Papa' Guardado during a fight outside a bar on September second.

The 46-year-old Guardado was the leader of the San Francisco chapter of the Hells Angels.

An estimated 2,000 of his fellow bikers attended his funeral last month. But it took Bartlesville police a while to figure all of this out.

Actually after he came right through the doors and turned himself in, the suspect though wouldn't answer any questions from police, so they are still not sure exactly how he ended up in Bartlesville.

"We asked if we could speak to him about it, talk to him a little bit. Find out how he got to Bartlesville, who dropped him off. Wasn't interested in that. Said no, not gonna talk about anything else," said Chief Holland.

Chief Holland says how exactly Ablett wound up in Green Country will likely remain a mystery. But he wishes more fugitives would just show up at his doorstep.

"We don't have people walk in every day that are wanted nationally for a serious crime, and surrender to us. But anybody who's out there who wants to, we'll be glad to accommodate them," said Chief Holland.

Bartlesville police say Ablett has been moved to a more secure facility. He is in the process of being extradited to California.

Hmmm. Depends on who runs the prison where he ends up being held. I suspcect Cali DOC will put him in a Mongol-friendly facility to give some semblance of avoiding "setting up" Guardado. If they stuck him someplace with a high population of Angels and he was killed, DOC would have wholesale riots across the state.

Mongols are a bit less discriminating in accepting members than the Angels, and less concerned with being "legit", so...

Hmmm - Mongols MC Associate Shot

GLENDALE -- A motorcyclist was killed this morning along a major freeway connector road in a possible gang-related shooting, authorities said.

A group of motorcyclists were traveling along the connector road linking the eastbound Foothill (210) Freeway to the southbound Glendale (2) Freeway around 2 a.m. when the man was shot, said Sgt. Tom Lorenz of the Glendale Police Department.

Firefighters and California Highway Patrol officers at the scene discovered the motorcycle in bushes alongside the road and its deceased rider nearby.

Lorenz said the victim is associated with the Mongols Motorcycle Club -- a motorcycle gang founded in Montebello in the 1970s.

"We don't know if, in fact, the gang affiliation has anything to do with the situation," Lorenz said.

Other members who were riding with the victim at the time of the shooting were cooperating with police.

Police said they know the victim's identity, however, they were not releasing that information at this time.

The connector roads linking the 210 and 2 freeways were shut down for much of the morning commute, along with the Foothill Boulevard onramp to the southbound 2, causing traffic backlog on Verdugo Boulevard.

The roads were expected to reopen once the coroner's office, which arrived around 9:30 a.m., removed the victim's body.

The northbound 2 Freeway was closed at Mountain Street until 5:30 a.m., when the lanes were reopened, said CHP Officer Anthony Martin.
